Something you don't see every day

After tonight's River Bandits game a helicopter dropped candy and possibly marshmallows onto the field at Modern Woodmen Park. Hundreds of kids were out there picking it up, and getting additional sweets dumped on them from additional helicopter passes. The new ownership of the River Bandits certainly has a good imagination for new events. I get the feeling that almost nothing is off the table at their brainstorming sessions. Here are some videos of the event taken from the Centennial Bridge.

Are you kidding me? Your comment is so insulting and out of line, it doesn't even deserve a legitimate rebuttal.

Most candy has quite colorful wrappers, making the trash colorful as well. Why would the trash be white? Unless they only threw unwrapped marshmallows...
